OK, we all know now that a quick confrontation by the police to the bad guys is not going to a sure thing. And now the bad guys know it, too. What are you going to do if you daughter calls on her cell phone from her school and tells you something like the Littleton shooting has happened? She says she is bleeding badly and the gunshots are getting closer and she hears screams. You are close by and when you get to the school the police are just arriving. Impressed and hopeful you watch them help students out of the building. But then they withdraw. Nothing is happening and your daughter is hysterical now saying the shooting is much closer. You advise the on scene commander and he says assesments are being made. You wait for a whole hour and nothing is happening except for gunshots from the school. You think your daughter has passed out. WHAT WILL YOU DO? You know fron Littleton that the police there waited several hours before engaging the gunmen. Do run in yourself? Will you get shot by the police on the way in? Will you make matters worse? Will you just pray? Could you live with yourself if your daughter or several of her friends bled to death?
This was a well planned out attack. What will future terrorists do with the extra time they will percieve to have? Sorry for the length. I just hope we all never have to face sometning like this.
